I just bought a house and this was the conclusion I came to. A cheap PoE-capable multigig switch and a single Omada access point cost about the same as a cheap WiFi 7-capable route…

How often are you still receiving physical cheques that mobile deposit is an essential feature? I could probably count on one hand the number of cheques I've deposited or written i…

> Canadian TikTok is now also being similarly moderated for content unfriendly of your administration. I feel like this has to do more with the consolidation you typically see inte…

I don't know, maybe it's the way I was raised, but to me it just seems like common sense that a privatised monopoly is going to be worse in literally every metric imaginable, than …

> Anyone will hopefully lend you a phone if you're in a pinch I honestly wouldn't count on it, at least not where I'm from, not anymore anyways. IME, having been in that situation …

And honestly, that's my biggest gripe. Identical search terms on different systems, or even the same system in different physical locations, almost always return different results …

The author's complaint(s) stem from the ads that "just keeps downloading" which in approximately five minutes downloaded "almost half a gigabyte" worth of information. This is a pr…

I feel like an easier solution to having six different email addresses is to use Gmail aliases - I've caught a few less-than-honest companies either selling my email address, or be…

Your dates are a little off - Rayman Legends released in 2013 and saw a remaster in 2017. Rayman Mini was released in 2019, but it's not exactly a main-franchise title...

> Keep in mind that the US auto industry is also very much a Canadian one. As someone who's worked in the auto industry (in Canada) I have to 'hard disagree.' The big three have pr…

> It's not profitable to recycle small electronic devices otherwise you'd see heaps of shops doing it. It's toxic, hazardous and labour intensive. Sounds like they should be bannin…

What burned me was that there was no updating from WP7 to WP8 - After playing around with one and genuinely enjoying the experience, I convinced myself to buy a Lumia 900 in April …

It's pretty easy to accomplish the same using virtually any 3D printer, even something as simple as an Ender 3 can be set to pause at a set layer in GCODE where the filament can ma…

This seems like an incredible disingenuous take. There's a marked difference between collecting information to freely share with the rest of humanity, and collecting information to…

I don't even get calls from my doctor anymore, everything is done online/through a portal, I just get an email with a link to my doctor's "secure portal," enter my DoB, and all our…

> But where I live, winters could be a big issue. These vehicles could coat the roads with thin black ice. I never even considered this as a problem. Is the exhaust liquid water th…

I was thinking the same thing; the city I'm in isn't even that large (approx 450k pop.) but I could probably go through my list of contacts that live in-town and rattle off at leas…

Not necessarily my own use, but I built a few tools (that I volunteer free for use on a perpetual license) for my day job to make life a little easier in a few departments. Nothing…

Realistically, it's been possible on and off for quite some time. Chrysler's UConnect system received quite a bit of flak some years back over just how easy it was to take over ful…

Given GM's commitment to actively removing the most popular and asked-for feature in the automotive world from their own infotainment systems, I'm not even surprised. This is a com…

In many cases the coils were integrated into the casing of the battery, and the back panel of the phone was thin enough to transfer sufficient power through.

Being one of those weirdos still using a proper receiver and 5.1 speaker setup on our main TV, but a stereo pair on our other TV, it's incredible the difference the lack of a discr…

It's become wildly prevalent the past few years in Canada, to the point where co-workers whom I've thought were decent people for the past ~10 years are actually inhuman pieces of …

I think, for me, it satisfies some kind of hoarding instinct. I have a hard time keeping 'random junk' laying around my apartment, but I have absolutely no problem keeping a copy o…
